The ULTIMATE inside joke

100% I don't know what it is that makes (some) people forget their youth and amend their values.

juluis ceaser was already stabbed ( according to google he made it)

Oh come on, you'd have to be putting an active dedicated effort to mess up that much

Yes. It's bone magic.

Sensible, practical people will always find the best and most straightforward way of building, regardless of which era or country they come from. Just because they come from a different era, doesn't make them any less intelligent. Same with tools-look at Paleolithic tools-they might be primitive, but they were effective and efficient, and the makers had to have some understanding of the different types of stone and other materials, and know to make use of cleavage planes, and knew to create different edges for different tasks (like serrated, beveled, scraping rather than cutting).

you are what you eat wait what the f**k

I want a kid to come up to me and ask if I want a badger

Hey, the only reason why I know the names of the planets so well is because of Sailor Moon...

All hail the sapphic poetry queen, Sappho! In Ancient Greece, homosexual relationships were ok between men, but not women, so the fact she wrote openly about having female lovers must have taken some guts.

What's even weirder is that Poseidon, amongst many other more obvious things like sea and storms, was also god of horses. So maybe he was mad the horse didn't vote the way he wanted and took it up with his manager?

Caligula? That dude who made a horse in power for an army? I heard he was corrupt.

How about the first Emperor of China who wanted to build a 1:1 map of China? But he was taking mercury pills to make him live longer, so he was barking.

omg Caligula. he was certainly something.

At least Caligula appointed both ends of the horse to public office.

Maybe it once meant bad luck lol

Ironic

Funnily enough, when we tried to communicate with a polish student at the school where I work, Google translate decided to make the exact same mistake ans the poor girl was horrified until we reverse-translated the statement and proceeded to apologize profusely in every language we could.

Those overabundand curly wigs were popularised by king Louis XIV of France who suffered from early baldness and then overcompensated.

I'm not from the US) because one French dude was self-conscious about his receding hairline
